Author Jacob Lesniewski (whom I've worked with before and a fine political thinker) wonders whether the City of Chicago will use the continued controversy over security at the Taste to begin racially profiling attendees in some way as a method of identifying gang members. Hopefully not. Though judging by video of last week's event I've seen on YouTube (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVQ521ZqS24" rel="nofollow">here's a clip</a> sent to me by a reader), it looks more like this year the gang members announced themselves in no uncertain terms. Readers can judge for themselves.
